GOVERNOR ADVOCATES THE RECALL JOHJiSOX SPEAKS YIGOHOTSLY IX ITS DEFENSE AD SENATOR CXAPP FOLLOWS WITH AX IQCALLI WARW DEFENSE. San Francisco, Sept. 4. The re call of the Judiciary, championed by Governor Hiram Johnson, with spec ial reference to the supreme court of California, and the recall of the Judi ciary urged by Senator Moses E. Clapp, of Minnesota with unveiled reference to the hlKhest Judicial tri bunal In the land today became the Blown of the Direct Legislation league - of California, following the annual meeting of the organization. Johnson and Clapp supported by balf a dozen other speakers, Includ ing Congressman Kent, of California, eiorlated conditions In the courts, where special Interests and hlg busi ness have become entrenched. "You give the people the right to recall a governor for misdoing, yet you are afraid to tnmt the people with the power to decide that a Judge Is corrupt," cried Johnson. "Direct legislation means putting the power of self rule In the hands of the people and thet crucial point la that legislation Is the recall of crooked Judges. "I want to say to you now, regard ing that campaign, that there Is nothing in It. It Is all done. The people will take legislation Into their own hands and the most encouraging part of the legislation proposed Is that relating to the Judiciary. "The recall Is democracy on Us on ward match and It shall not be tayed." Senator Clapp opened with a dis cussion of the principle of the recall. "lint we must remember that the recall Is but the foundation stone. Free government la a continual series of problems and not the leimt nre direct election of senators and of the president of the I'nlted States. "Annlyze the character and the sinister purposes of those who are organized In opposing the recall of Jnlclary, for that Is the critical point the recall of the Judiciary. "The president says the Judges would swerve In the face of nn im pending election. In my experience with elective Judges, I never knew one to be moved by thoughts of elec tion, but maybe the president has been thrown Into a different Judicial atmosphere than thnt I have been In. "The president Is quoted by a care fully nursed and carefully edited news bureau as saying the recall would subject the Judiciary to un scrupulous control by a combination. The combination does not look at It thnt way. There Is no boss, lobby ist or other corrupter who Is not against the recall of Judges. Either they are mistaken or else the good president must be mistaken In be lieving these forces will get control. "Every force at the control of special Interests Is ngnlnst this fea ture of the progress of pure democ racy." Senator Clapp will speak gain to night nt a banquet of tho leaguo at the Palace hotel. o Salem, Ore. (Special) Some nine ty oild horses are now training on the Salem track for the Oregon State Fair meet and not a fast one owned in the Northwest in missing from the ntry list. Secretary Frank Mere dith says he looks for the track rec ord to go by the hoards at this meet because of the improvements made in the course. One of the big features is the steeplechase event in which, strange to say, most of the entries have come from women owners. It aeems from this that the sticks are most in favor by the women of the Pacific Northwest. At least they seem to own more hurdlers than the men, if , the entry lists are a guide of what the women of Oregon, Wash ington, Idaho, Montana and Ilritish Columbia have to offer for the snort of those who go to the Oregon State Fair this year.

DEATTIE TELLS HIS VERSION STICKS TO STORY OF BEARDED MAX DOIXG THE SHOOTING AXD GITES GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION OF HIS FIGHT WITH MURDERER. Chesterfield Courthouse, Va., Sept. 4. At times Interrupting hit) dis course to argue, direct with the Jury and apparently favorably affecting the men who are to decide his fate, Henry Clay lieattle, Jr., on the wit ness stand today In hU own defense on the charge of wife murder, force fully narrated his story of the events leading up to and taking place on the night of the tragedy. Time and again the court was obliged to remind tho witneHS that his counsel was employed to do all the arguing necessary, so eager and earnest did he become In explaining away the alleged frallltlos In the state's case, it was a case of a man, young, Intelligent, quick minded and clear headed, fighting desperately for life, seeking to convince the Jury by the unhesitating straightforwardness of his story of his Innocence of the crime of which he stands accimed. "We were running 15 to 20 miles on hour when I saw a man aliead." the defendant snld. "I stopped Just in time to avoid hitting him and af ter arguing for several minutes, I started the car up again with a Jerk. As 1 set the levers the man raised his gun and fired. My wife fell be hind me, whether Injured or not I did not take time to see. "I Jumped out at the man, who raised his gun and struck Just as I closed with ti 1 lit. I seized the butt of the gun and It banged against my noBe and I fell to the ground, the gun In my hands. The man ran tip the road, disappearing beforo I could gather myself together to pursue. 1 threw the gun In the back of the car and hastened home, the body of my wife remaining in the position In which It fell when the fatal shot was fired." With these words Ilenttle told of the actual killing, following up, with details of the wild ride home, during which his auto at times attained a speed of liO miles an hour. He again described the assailant as a tall, benrded man. The climax of lieattlo's dramatic story came when his lawyers an nounced thnt they wlHhed Ilenttle to be placed In the bloody automobile to demonstrate by motions and posi tion Just how the events described had occurred. Judge Watson delayed the demon stration until after luncheon, the I VETCH SEED J We nre now In shape to f quote good prices on new crop I vetch seed for imiiiedlule de- 1 livery.

Attorney Smith at the close of the noon recess announced that Beattie'g demonstra tion of the manner In which the eventa surrounding te murder took place would close the ta.se of the de fense. It was decided before Heattie's cross examination began that it would not be necessary for the pris oner to give a reproduction of the ! part he played when the murder oc curred. With the automobile as a "prop." heattie's cross examination, which he faced smilingly, brought out the admission that his illicit relations relations with lieulab. Xiinford began a week alter he first met her. Beu lah was only 13 years old at the time, but the defendant claimed he did not know their intimacy was ille gal as the girl appeared much older. After lleattle had denied having written a letter to Mrs. liinford re garding the adoption of Ueulah's child, Wendenburg produced the let ter in question and the prisoner was forced to admit that he was the au thor. o IV hero the Plant Feeds. (liy W. C. Palmer. The plant feeds principally In the soil that is turned with the plow. This can be determined In any field by noticing the poor growth that the plant In the dead furrow makes, the fair growth made by the plant outside of It, and the best growth made by the plant on the back furrow. The plant in the dead furrow, while it came from the same kind of seed as the others, cannot make the growth, an it has to feed in the sub-soli soil that has not bt.en turned with the plow and the plant food thnt Is in it has not been made available. The plant on the back furrow has an extra amount of soil that has been turned with the plow, and the result Is that, having more avalable food, It makes a larger growth than the plant on the regu larly plowed land. This, then, gires an insight Into what is needed by the plant to make its best growth, and the beauty of It is that the plant tells us Itself. The surface soil will dry out to the depth of at least two Inches. The roots cannot feed In this. If the plowing 1b but five inches deep, tiiat leaves the plant only three Inches of soil that Is In condition for it to feed from, if the plowing Is eight Inches and the same amount dries out on the surface, the plant then has six Inches, or twice as much soil, that It can feed on, ns compared to three Inches on the five-Inch plowing. This should make It quite plain, from the standpoint of the plant getting its food, that the deeper plowing Is quite important. Then there Is the other fact that rain soaks into the deep plowing more' readily and quickly, so thnt there will be less run-off from it than from the shallow plowing. The plowed soli Is also In a condition to hold more mois ture than thnt which has not been loosened up with the plow, both through the soil grlans being better arranged and through the added or ganic matter. Another matter that should be considered here Is thnt the plant must have the moisture where the food is.-thnt It Is going to take up. Being In the soil turned with the plow that Is where the moisture must he to do the plant much good. This Is the reason, then, why the soil should be packed and every means taken to have It In good contact with the sub soil bo tat as the plant uses up the moisture In the surface soli, more moisture can travel up to take its place. The deep plowing also makes It necessary that more organic mat ter be added to the soil, else, ns the soli is worked deeper and the organic matter distributed In more soli, there will be a less mount of It In a given amount of tho deep-plowed soil than the shallow-plowed land. The fact that the plant feeds In the soil turned by the plow Is a reason, too, why corn should not be cultivated deep after It has made n good root system, as the main feeders helng so near the sur face, some of them will be cut off and the plant delayed In Its growth, as It must grow new roots before it can properly feed itself. Especially Is this Important late In the senson. And In dry-funning, corn should be cultivated late, ns two reasons for growing It In this system of trnilng Is to save mois ture and kill weeds. These points in regnrd to where the plant feeds and the consequent need of deep ptowlng. of adding organic matter, of shallow cultivation for cul tivated crops, needs to be kept in mind whether the farming is being done In a dry or a humid climate, but more attention needs to be given them In dry funning. Pry Farming. o Salem, Ore. (Special With the horsemen racing against their own money as they are at the Oregon State Fair from September It to 10, there is bound to be rare sport. All the classes have filled and as a result the unusual spectacle of the drivers and owners racing for their own money coining from entrance fees is presented Tim .insures lion CM racing and the cards show that the fa-1 horses have all been entered. Secretary Frank M Heath of the organisation which has its track and exhibit grounds at Salem. Ore. is happy because of the showing made. He has had the track imnroed and it will not "cup'' as much as in former years. The ''doctor" reported that the fautt of the track was because the clay mixture was dead. Some new clay was spread and as a re-ult the track ha- been "regenerated" int.i a fast one, with the objections of vet eran horsemrn nearly removed. As a consequence all the classes have filled and everyone is waiting for the "go" of the first race Governor Oswald West has prom ised to attend the races this vtar. and President L. Y. Hill of the Great Northern Railway Company, has as sured Secretary Meredith that h will be present on the closing day, Sat urday, to participate in the Good Roads Conference ami demonstration. Altogether, it looks as if the O'e gon State Fair, with improved grounds anj better tr.:ck and build ings, will be better than ever Hardly a county is lacking in representation and the competition for prizes in the various ehihits will be keen, prob ably unusually so in the stock show events. Reduced rates are in effect on all railroad lines for this exposition of the best tlut Oregon has to offer. SAYS CAPITAL IS TRYING TO MALIGN LABOR trsrriD rarss leased wiei.J Blngbampton, X. Y., Sept. 4. De claring that only by means of mis representation can capital now war against labor. Frank Morrison, sec retary of the American Federation of Labor, ia an address here today, reviewed the progress of unionism. He said: "Antagonistic associations of em ployers, driven to desperation, and having no regard for the Inherent rights of man or for any form of law today are seeking by various means to destroy organized labor. The making of false and criminal charges without foundation appears to b their present mode of warfare. "The kidnaping of the McNamaras was apparently considered by the men committing that outrage as quite per mlssable. The employers' associa tions do not hope for their final con viction, but purpose by their prose cution to cast odium upon the entire labor movom-nt. They are deter mined, by fair means or foul, to strike labor a fatal blow. Hut they will fail. The corrupt employers' as sociation will hardly care to try con clusions with us airiiin when this trial Is ended. Kidnaping and malicious prosecution must stop." Morrison said that congress today was more friendly to labor than ever. He defended the "closed shop" from the charge that it was invented to wrst the control of his business from the employer. o WE KB HAS .BADOED HOPE.
